As an artisan coffee roaster based in Sydney, we take pride in offering a wide variety of coffee blends to our customers. From espresso to latte, mocha to black coffee, each variant has its own unique flavor profile and brewing method. In this blog post, we'll take a closer look at some of the most popular coffee variants and how you can serve them to your customers or enjoy them at home.

Espresso

Espresso is the backbone of many coffee drinks and is often used as the base for lattes, cappuccinos, and Americanos. It is made by forcing hot water through finely ground coffee beans under high pressure. The result is a concentrated shot of coffee with a rich, bold flavor and a thick, creamy crema on top.

To make a perfect espresso, it's important to use freshly roasted, high-quality coffee beans and a well-maintained espresso machine. The ideal espresso should have a volume of 1.5 oz and be extracted in 25 seconds.

Latte

A latte is a coffee drink made with espresso, steamed milk, and a small amount of foam. It is one of the most popular coffee drinks and is known for its smooth and creamy texture. To make a latte, the barista will pour a shot of espresso into a large cup, then add steamed milk and a small amount of foam on top. The foam is usually decorated with latte art.

Mocha

A mocha is a variation of a latte that includes chocolate. The chocolate is usually in the form of cocoa powder or chocolate syrup, which is added to the steamed milk before the espresso is poured in. Mocha is a delicious alternative for those who love the taste of coffee and chocolate combined.

Affogato

An Affagato is a coffee drink made with espresso and vanilla ice cream. It is typically made by pouring a shot of espresso over a scoop of vanilla ice cream, resulting in a sweet and creamy coffee drink.

Doppio

A Doppio is a double shot of espresso, typically served in a small cup. This strong and intense coffee variant is perfect for those who prefer a bold and full-bodied flavor.

Americano:

An Americano is made by adding hot water to a shot of espresso, resulting in a more diluted and less intense flavor
